I recently read that the Aldene Connection is single track yet graded for double track. Is there ever going to be a need for this? If I recall, CNJ was four tracks through here at one time.
I ask because here in Chicago, a number of once-double track interchanges were single tracked in the rough years when it appeared trains were never really going to be viable again. Now, traffic is so heavy that double track is being reinstated at some once again busy interlockers.

The new Acela: It's not Aveliable.
